Last weekend I attended the Ocean Shores Jazz Festival, which of course was great. They had a new band called Klyntel. I thought this band was absolutely fabulous--musically talented and extremely upbeat and entertaining. Everyone in the room looked like they were having fun.
Klyntel is progressive Jazz as opposed to the old-timey Dixieland Jazz. They play the kind of music that true jazz aficionados appreciate.
I am telling you this because I overheard someone telling a Seaside sponsor not to book Klyntel because the old farts didn't like them, and they were not danceable. That is not true! They have a strong beat that is imminently danceable. Plus, I am one old fart who really appreciated them. I like Dixieland Jazz, but I also like variety.
Please consider booking Klyntel.
Thank you,
Joan Richmond
P.S. The jazz festivals need to also book bands like Klyntel that appeal to the younger generation. My generation is dying out. Don't let the jazz festivals die with us.
